** CANCELLED – AS OF 31ST OCTOBER WAKEFIELD COUNCIL HAVE MADE THE DECISION TO CANCEL THE EVENT ON SAFETY GROUNDS**
⚠️ EVENT CANCELLED
We’re having to cancel the Thornes Park Fireworks planned for Saturday 4 November.
The heavy rain we’ve had, and are still having, has made the site too unsafe for the event.
It’s really disappointing and we’re sorry to let you down. But safety comes first.
